Chapter 543 Just Kidnapping

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and no one spoke.

In the end, it was Roman who pulled the comers of his mouth, revealing an awkward smile. “Jaydan, why don’t we sit down and talk about this?”

Hearing this, Lainey turned around and sat on the sofa in the living room with red eyes.

Jaydan sighed and walked to the sofa.

Roman closed the door and took a deep breath to adjust her mood. Then she turned and walked over.

When he met Jaydan’s cold eyes, his hand trembled and he subconsciously said, “Jaydan, do you want tea or coffee? Do you want me…”

Jaydan raised his hand and interrupted him, “No need. Take a seat.”

Lainey already reached her limit. She raised her head and tears welled up in her eyes. “Dad, didn’t you promise me that you would let me choose my husband? Why did you break your promise and stop me?”

Roman was sitting beside her. Seeing that Lainey was emotional, he ignored Jaydan. He hugged her lovingly and gently advised, “Lainey, don’t be emotional. Your father hasn’t finished his words.”

Jaydan then told the two why he was here. “Lainey, do you think I won’t know about your injury if you hide it from me?”

Lainey immediately lost her ability to think. She looked up at Jaydan in disbelief. “Dad, you know everything?”

As she finished speaking, she began to tremble uncontrollably.

The humiliation from that day seemed to have returned to her mind. She could not accept her father knowing about this.

Roman felt her fear, and he tightened his hug, wishing to merge with her.

He knew that if the scar that had healed was torn open, it would be bloody.

Jaydan thought that he had hit the nail on the head. He snorted and continued, “You were kidnapped and almost killed. How dare you hide such a serious thing from me?”

Wait, killed?

Lainey seemed to have grasped her hope. She asked nervously, “Dad, do you know anything else?”

Jaydan frowned. He, who had been in the business world for many years, realized something. His voice became gloomy. “Is there anything I don’t know?”

Roman pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but Lainey answered, “No. I am fine. I am not injured. You are too worried.”

Hearing the last sentence, Jaydan became furious. He stood up and slammed the table. The force was so strong that even the cup on the table was knocked over.

Jaydan shouted, “Lainey, before your mother died, she told me to raise you. She doesn’t expect you to be outstanding. She only hopes that you can live a peaceful life.”

After saying that, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes before continuing, “I promised your mother that I would take good care of you. Do you want me, who is about to die, to experience the pain of seeing you dead?”

Lainey had never seen Jaydan so angry in her life.

In just a moment, her tears could not be controlled and they covered her face. She was so wronged that she could not speak a complete sentence, “Dad, how can you say that? I have never thought of dying before you. I have to take care of you in your old age, and…”

Lainey pulled Roman and hysterically explained, “Roman will protect me. I am safe and sound because he risked his life to save me.”

Jaydan snorted and glared at Roman, who was silent. “Is that so? Why did I hearthat you were kidnapped because of him?”

Lainey’s voice stopped. It was too late when she came back to her senses. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Jaydan understood everything from her reaction.

“Dad, listen to me. This is a misunderstanding. Roman didn’t know that those people would find me. He regretted it very much after it happened, so we stayed in this place.” Lainey was still explaining.

Jaydan’s face became colder and colder, and the atmosphere became oppressive.

Roman let go of his clenched fists. When his anger reached its extreme, he said bitterly, “Jaydan, can you let me talk to Lainey alone? I can persuade her to go back with you.”

“What are you talking about?” Lainey’s eyes were full of disbelief and disappointment.

Roman was hurt by her distrustful gaze, but he had no choice but to endure the heart-wrenching pain and smile gently at her. “Lainey, can you let me finish?”

Lainey saw through his disguise, and her eyes reddened a little. She could not bear to refuse him.

Jaydan knew his daughter’s temper. If he took her away by force, there would be no good ending.

He stood up and looked down at Roman. Seeing that Roman was looking at him calmly, he praised him even though he was reluctant.

On the surface, Jaydan was still indifferent, and his words were cold. “I will only give you ten minutes. No matter whether you two will reach an agreement, I will take Lainey away.”

“Okay, thank you, Jaydan.” Roman nodded.

Jaydan did not say anything more. He turned and left the hall, leaving the two alone.

After the door closed, Lainey cried and walked forward, hitting Roman’s chest. “Do you know what you said? You actually want me to leave. What do you mean? Do you dislike me or not want me anymore?”

Roman grabbed her hand and gently blew on it. “Don’t hit me. It will hurt.”

Lainey was stunned. Her curly eyelashes trembled and tears rolled down.

“Fool, how could I dislike you? How could I bear to abandon you? Don’t say such things in the future.” Roman’s voice shook as if she was trying his best to suppress something.

Lainey raised her head and met Roman’s painful and reluctant eyes. She could not help but cry even louder.

Roman hugged her tightly instead of holding her hand. His chin was placed on her head. He seemed to be staring somewhere on the ground, and he seemed to be in a daze.

He said slowly, “Lainey, listen to me. Jaydan traveled thousands of miles to find you. He must be worried. What you need to do now is to be with him.

Only then will he calm down.”

“What about you? What are you going to do?” Lainey finally stopped crying as she asked with a sob.

Roman was amused by her words, and the gloom in his heart dissipated a lot. “I have to find a way to get Jaydan’s approval.”
